Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of assembly device technology, and particularly relates to assembly equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Chokes are common filtering components in electronic control modules, typically requiring the assembly of electronic components such as capacitors and resistors onto the board. Currently, this assembly work is still done manually or semi-automatically in some production scenarios. Operators first insert the capacitors into their corresponding positions on the choke, then bend the resistor leads before inserting them onto the board. Manual operation is not only inefficient, but also makes it difficult to guarantee the perpendicularity of capacitor insertion and the consistency of the bending angle and position of resistor leads, resulting in significant fluctuations in product yield.

[0003] In terms of automated equipment, some specialized devices for bending the leads of electronic components have emerged in the existing technology. These devices typically apply bending force to the leads through structures such as bending pillars, wedge blocks, or roller assemblies, shaping the leads to a predetermined angle. However, the function of these devices is relatively limited, only capable of performing the bending action. The bent components still need to be transported to the assembly station by additional transfer equipment or manual labor. The feeding, bending, and assembly processes are disconnected, making it difficult to form a continuous production process. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In some embodiments, the bending block is provided with a bending groove, the bending groove including a first groove segment and a second groove segment that are interconnected, the first groove segment extending along the moving direction of the second component, and the second groove segment being set at an angle to the first groove segment; when the pin moves with the second component, it enters the bending groove, the segment to be bent abuts against the groove wall of the bending groove at the connection between the first groove segment and the second groove segment and bends relative to the main body segment, the bent segment to be bent is received in the second groove segment and extends along the second groove segment.

[0008] In some embodiments, the spacing direction between the feeding structure and the conveying mechanism is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism.

[0009] In some embodiments, the bending structure further includes a support frame and a sliding actuator connected to the support frame. The bending block is connected to the sliding actuator, which drives the bending block to slide in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the second component, so that the bending block can move onto the movement path of the second component or avoid the movement of the second component.

[0010] In some embodiments, the first assembly mechanism includes a feeder for providing the first component and a transfer assembly. The transfer assembly includes a first linear motion assembly, a rotating structure connected to the first linear motion assembly, and a first clamping member connected to the rotating structure. The first clamping member is used to clamp or release the first component. The rotating structure is used to drive the first clamping member to rotate about a rotation axis that extends vertically. The first linear motion assembly is used to drive the rotating structure, the first clamping member, and the first component to move synchronously in a straight line in three-dimensional space.

[0011] In some embodiments, the material transfer structure includes a second linear motion component and a second clamping member connected to the linear motion component. The second clamping member is used to clamp or release the second component, and the second linear motion component is used to drive the second clamping member and the second component to move synchronously in a straight line in three-dimensional space.

[0012] In some embodiments, the frame further includes a loading station, the loading station, the first assembly station, and the second assembly station are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism, and the loading station is provided with a loading mechanism; the loading mechanism includes a feeding component, an adhesive coating structure, and a moving component, the feeding component is used to provide the target workpiece, the target workpiece is provided with an installation area for mounting the first component and the second component, the adhesive coating structure is used to apply adhesive to the surface of the installation area, and the moving component is used to drive the target workpiece to move between the conveying mechanism, the feeding component, and the adhesive coating structure.

[0013] In some embodiments, the conveying mechanism is used to convey the target workpiece along a first direction, and the feeding assembly, the adhesive coating structure, and the conveying mechanism are arranged sequentially at intervals along a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction; the moving assembly includes a linear module extending along the second direction, a third clamping member connected to the linear module, and a detection structure connected to the linear module, the linear module being used to drive the third clamping member and the detection structure to move synchronously along the second direction, the third clamping member being used to clamp or release the target workpiece, and the detection structure being used to detect the posture of the target workpiece provided by the feeding assembly and the adhesive coating status of the target workpiece.

[0014] In some embodiments, the adhesive application structure includes an adhesive applicator, a linear actuator extending along the first direction, and a fixture slidably connected to the linear actuator. The fixture is used to carry the target workpiece, and the linear actuator is used to drive the fixture to move along the first direction. One end of the linear actuator extends between the feeding assembly and the conveying mechanism, and the other end of the linear actuator is connected to the adhesive applicator. The fixture moves between the feeding assembly and the conveying mechanism to receive the target workpiece to be adhesive applied, and transfers the target workpiece to the adhesive applicator, whereby the adhesive applicator applies adhesive to the target workpiece. The fixture then transfers the adhesive-applied target workpiece between the feeding assembly and the conveying mechanism for pickup by the third clamping member.

[0015] The assembly equipment provided in this application uses a conveying mechanism to sequentially transport the target workpiece to the first assembly station and the second assembly station along the conveying direction. The first assembly mechanism automatically completes the installation of the first component onto the target workpiece, and the second assembly mechanism automatically completes the feeding, transfer, and installation of the second component onto the target workpiece. This achieves continuous and automated assembly of the first and second components with the target workpiece on the same equipment. Compared with manual or semi-automatic operation, this effectively reduces the manual intervention and improves assembly efficiency. Furthermore, by integrating the feeding structure, the transferring structure, and the bending structure, with the bending structure located between the feeding structure and the conveying mechanism, the transferring structure can bend the pins of the second component while picking it up from the feeding structure and moving it to the conveying mechanism. This allows the bending action of the pins to be completed synchronously with the transfer action of the second component. As a result, there is no need to set up a separate bending station or additional bending equipment, nor is there a need for transfer between bending and assembly, simplifying the equipment structure of the assembly equipment.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 6This application provides an assembly device, including: a frame 10 with a first assembly station 12 and a second assembly station 13; a conveying mechanism 20 disposed on the frame 10 for conveying a target workpiece 200, the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13 being arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 20; a first assembly mechanism 30 disposed on the first assembly station 12 for providing a first component 300 and driving the first component 300 to move; and a second assembly mechanism 40 disposed on the second assembly station 13, the second assembly mechanism 40 including a feeding structure 41 for providing the second component 400 and a mechanism for driving the second component 400 between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20. The moving material transfer structure and the bending structure 43 located between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20, the second component 400 having pins 410, the bending structure 43 being used to bend the pins 410 during the movement of the second component 400 from the feeding structure 41 to the conveying mechanism 20; wherein, the conveying mechanism 20 transfers the target workpiece 200 to the first assembly station 12, the first assembly mechanism 30 installs the first component 300 onto the target workpiece 200; the conveying mechanism 20 transfers the target workpiece 200 with the first component 300 installed to the second assembly station 13; the material transfer structure picks up the second component 400 from the feeding structure 41 and installs the second component 400 onto the target workpiece 200 after bending it in the bending structure 43.

[0024] The assembly equipment of this embodiment can be used to assemble the first component 300 and the second component 400 to the target workpiece 200. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the target workpiece 200 can be a choke plate, which has slots for mounting the first component 300 and the second component 400. The first component 300 is a capacitor, and the second component 400 is a resistor with leads 410. After the capacitor and resistor are mounted to their corresponding mounting positions on the choke plate, they together constitute the filtering function of the choke plate. Of course, the first component 300 and the second component 400 are not limited to capacitors and resistors, and the target workpiece 200 is not limited to a choke plate. As long as the target workpiece 200 needs to assemble the two components sequentially at different workstations, and one of the components has leads 410 that need to be bent before assembly, the above-described assembly equipment concept can be used.

[0025] The frame 10 is equipped with a first assembly station 12 and a second assembly station 13, which are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 20. The conveying mechanism 20 can be a belt conveyor, chain conveyor, or guide rail conveyor, as long as it can sequentially deliver the target workpiece 200 to the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13 along the conveying direction. The target workpiece 200 can be placed directly on the conveying mechanism 20, or it can be placed in a fixture first, and then the fixture moves with the conveying mechanism 20. When the target workpiece 200 is a choke plate, the choke plate can be placed flat in the positioning groove of the fixture, and the positioning groove will position it to maintain a stable posture at the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13, which is convenient for the accurate installation of capacitors and resistors.

[0026] The first assembly mechanism 30 is located at the first assembly station 12 and is used to provide the first component 300 and drive the first component 300 to move so as to install the first component 300 onto the target workpiece 200. When the conveying mechanism 20 conveys the target workpiece 200 to the first assembly station 12, the first assembly mechanism 30 operates to install the first component 300 onto the target workpiece 200; after installation, the conveying mechanism 20 continues to convey the target workpiece 200 with the first component 300 to the second assembly station 13.

[0027] The second assembly mechanism 40 is located at the second assembly station 13 and is used to provide the second component 400 and install the second component 400 onto the target workpiece 200. The feeding structure 41 is used to provide the second component 400. When the second component 400 is a resistor, the feeding structure 41 can specifically be a horizontal taping feeder. The horizontal taping feeder can carry the taped and packaged resistors and feed the taping segment by segment, supplying the resistors one by one to the picking position. Using a horizontal taping feeder, the resistors maintain a horizontal posture in the taping, facilitating the material transfer structure to directly pick up the resistors from the taping, and also reducing the space occupied by the feeding structure 41 in the height direction. Of course, the feeding structure 41 can also take the form of a vibratory feeder, feeding track, or hopper, as long as it can supply the resistors one by one to the picking position.

[0028] The resistor has leads 410, and a bending structure 43 is used to bend the leads 410 during the process of the resistor moving from the feeding structure 41 to the conveying mechanism 20. That is, after the transfer structure picks up the resistor from the feeding structure 41, it passes through the bending structure 43 on its way to the conveying mechanism 20. The leads 410 of the resistor are bent under the action of the bending structure 43. When the transfer structure delivers the resistor to the target workpiece 200, the leads 410 of the resistor are already in a bent state, and the transfer structure then installs the resistor onto the target workpiece 200.

[0029] The assembly equipment provided in this application uses a conveying mechanism 20 to sequentially transport the target workpiece 200 to the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13 along the conveying direction. The first assembly mechanism 30 automatically completes the installation of the first component 300 onto the target workpiece 200, and the second assembly mechanism 40 automatically completes the feeding, transfer, and installation of the second component 400 onto the target workpiece 200. This achieves continuous and automated assembly of the first component 300, the second component 400, and the target workpiece 200 on the same equipment. Compared to manual or semi-automatic operation methods, this effectively reduces manual intervention and improves assembly efficiency. Efficiency; and this application integrates the feeding structure 41, the transferring structure and the bending structure 43. The bending structure 43 is located between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20. When the transferring structure picks up the second component 400 from the feeding structure 41 and moves it to the conveying mechanism 20, the bending structure 43 can be used to bend the pin 410 of the second component 400, so that the bending action of the pin 410 is completed synchronously with the transfer action of the second component 400. Therefore, there is no need to set up a separate bending station or additional bending equipment, nor is there a need to transfer between bending and assembly, which simplifies the equipment structure of the assembly equipment.

[0030] Understandably, this application also includes a control system (not shown in the figure), in which the conveying mechanism 20, the first assembly mechanism 30 and the second assembly mechanism 40 are all communicatively connected to the control system. The control system can control the conveying mechanism 20, the first assembly mechanism 30 and the second assembly mechanism 40 to automatically coordinate and operate, thereby further improving production efficiency.

[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bending structure 43 includes a bending block 431 disposed between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the extension direction of pin 410 is set at an angle to the moving direction of the second component 400. Pin 410 includes a main body segment 411 and a bending segment 412 connected to the main body segment 411. When pin 410 passes the bending block 431, the bending segment 412 abuts against the side of the bending block 431 facing the feeding structure 41. The material transfer structure drives the main body segment 411 to continue moving so that the bending segment 412 bends relative to the main body segment 411.

[0032] In this embodiment, the main body of the resistor at the discharge end of the feeding structure 41 extends horizontally, and the leads 410 of the resistor also extend horizontally. That is, the extension direction of the leads 410 is consistent with or approximately consistent with the extension direction of the main body of the resistor, and the extension direction of the leads 410 is angled to the moving direction of the resistor. Specifically, when the transfer structure clamps the main body of the resistor and moves the resistor horizontally from the feeding structure 41 to the conveying mechanism 20, both the main body of the resistor and the leads 410 are horizontal, and the extension direction of the leads 410 intersects the moving direction of the resistor; for example, they can be approximately perpendicular. The leads 410 include a main body segment 411 connected to the main body of the resistor and a bending segment 412 connected to the main body segment 411. The main body segment 411 can extend horizontally from the end of the main body of the resistor, and the bending segment 412 is connected to the end of the main body segment 411 away from the main body of the resistor and also extends horizontally.

[0033] When the transfer structure picks up the resistor and moves it toward the conveying mechanism 20, the resistor as a whole translates along the moving direction, and the lead 410 moves closer to the bending block 431. When the lead 410 passes the bending block 431, the section 412 to be bent abuts against the side of the bending block 431 facing the feeding structure 41, which forms the contact point for the section 412 to be bent. The bending block 431 only interferes with the section 412 to be bent on the moving path of the resistor, without contacting the main body 411, and the main body 411 can pass through one side of the bending block 431. At this time, the transfer structure continues to move the main body of the resistor along the original direction, while the section 412 to be bent cannot move forward with the main body and the main body 411 due to the obstruction of the bending block 431. Therefore, the contact point between the section 412 to be bent and the bending block 431 becomes the bending fulcrum. Under the continuous driving of the transfer structure, the section 412 to be bent rotates relative to the main body 411, thus gradually bending.

[0034] In this process, the position of the bending block 431 determines the timing of contact between the section to be bent 412 and the bending block 431, and also determines the degree of bending of the section to be bent 412 relative to the main body section 411. The side of the bending block 431 closest to the feeding structure 41 can be set as a plane, or as an inclined plane or an arc surface, so that the section to be bent 412 can gradually bend according to the shape of this side after contact, avoiding damage to the lead 410 due to sudden force changes. A gap can be left between the bending block 431 and the conveying mechanism 20 for the resistor to pass through. This gap allows the resistor body and the bent lead 410 to pass through, so that the material transfer structure can continue to feed the resistor to the target workpiece 200.

[0035] Therefore, the bending structure 43 can achieve the bending of the pin 410 with only the simple component of the bending block 431. It does not require a separate bending drive, transmission mechanism or detection control element. The structure is very simple, occupies little space, and is easy to install in the limited space between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20. The bending block 431 itself can be a simple shape such as block, column or plate, which is easy to process and manufacture, low cost, and easy to arrange and replace according to the position, number and bending angle of the resistor pin 410.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bending block 431 is provided with a bending groove, which includes a first groove segment 4311 and a second groove segment 4312 that are interconnected. The first groove segment 4311 extends along the moving direction of the second component 400, and the second groove segment 4312 is set at an angle to the first groove segment 4311. When the pin 410 moves with the second component 400, it enters the bending groove. The section 412 to be bent abuts against the groove wall of the bending groove at the connection between the first groove segment 4311 and the second groove segment 4312 and bends relative to the main body segment 411. The bent section 412 is received in the second groove segment 4312 and extends along the second groove segment 4312.

[0037] When the transfer structure picks up the second component 400 and moves toward the conveying mechanism 20, the pin 410 can naturally enter the bending groove without additional guiding action. The first groove segment 4311 extends along the moving direction of the second component 400, and the second groove segment 4312 bends and extends from the end of the first groove segment 4311. The included angle between the two groove segments is equal to the target included angle between the main body segment 411 and the bending segment after the pin 410 is formed.

[0038] The width of the bending groove is slightly larger than the diameter of the pin 410, forming a small clearance fit. This allows the pin 410 to be accommodated within the groove while restricting its movement in the groove width direction, thus stabilizing the bending process. The bottom surface of the bending groove supports the pin 410 during bending, preventing it from coming out in the groove depth direction. A rounded transition surface can be provided at the connection between the first groove segment 4311 and the second groove segment 4312. The radius of curvature of this rounded transition surface is consistent with the inner radius of the target bend of the pin 410. The bending segment 412 gradually bends into shape by conforming to this rounded transition surface, avoiding stress concentration or even breakage at the root of the pin 410 caused by sharp-corner bending. At the same time, the rounded transition surface also reduces the sliding friction between the pin 410 and the groove wall, reducing the wear of the plating on the surface of the pin 410.

[0039] In addition, the length of the second groove segment 4312 can be set to be no less than the length of the section to be bent 412, so that the section to be bent 412 after bending can be completely submerged in the second groove segment 4312 and be clamped and constrained by the groove walls on both sides during the entire process of the second component 400 continuing to move.

[0040] In this embodiment, the position of the bending point is determined by the location of the connection between the two first slot segments 4311 and the second slot segment 4312 on the transport path, and the bending angle is determined by the included angle between the two slot segments. The critical dimensions for pin 410 formation are ensured by the processing accuracy of the bending block 431. Therefore, it is unaffected by differences in incoming material posture or fluctuations in transport speed, improving the consistency and stability of pin 410 formation. Furthermore, the bent segment 412 is housed in the second slot segment 4312 and constrained by the slot wall, preventing springback or shaking during subsequent transport, ensuring the alignment accuracy of the pin 410 with the mounting hole, and improving assembly yield.

[0041] In some embodiments, the spacing direction between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 20. That is, the conveying mechanism 20 sequentially delivers the target workpiece 200 to the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13 along its conveying direction, while the feeding structure 41 is disposed on one side of the conveying mechanism 20 and spaced apart from the conveying mechanism 20 in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction. When the transfer structure moves between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20, the transfer path of the second component 400 from the feeding structure 41 to the conveying mechanism 20 is perpendicular to the travel direction of the target workpiece 200 on the conveying mechanism 20.

[0042] With this arrangement, the feeding structure 41 does not need to occupy the space of the conveying mechanism 20 along the conveying direction, thus avoiding positional interference with the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13 in the conveying direction. The conveying mechanism 20 can centrally arrange the assembly stations along its conveying direction, while the feeding structure 41, bending structure 43, etc., are arranged on one side of the conveying mechanism 20 along a second direction perpendicular to the conveying direction, so that the length of the whole machine in the conveying direction can be controlled, and the functional components are more compactly distributed in the plane.

[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bending structure 43 also includes a support frame 432 and a sliding actuator 433 connected to the support frame 432. The bending block 431 is connected to the sliding actuator 433. The sliding actuator 433 is used to drive the bending block 431 to slide in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the second component 400, so that the bending block 431 can move onto the moving path of the second component 400, or avoid the movement of the second component 400.

[0044] A support frame 432 is mounted on the frame 10 to provide a mounting base for the bending block 431 and its driving components. A sliding actuator 433 is connected to the support frame 432, and the bending block 431 is connected to the sliding actuator 433. The sliding actuator 433 drives the bending block 431 to slide in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the second component 400, that is, the bending block 431 can move in a direction perpendicular to the moving path of the second component 400.

[0045] Driven by the sliding actuator 433, the bending block 431 has two working positions. The first is the bending position, where the sliding actuator 433 pushes the bending block 431 onto the moving path of the second component 400. As the second component 400 moves along the second direction, the section 412 of its pin 410 to be bent can abut against the bending block 431, thus completing the bending under the continuous action of the material transfer structure. The second position is the avoidance position, where the sliding actuator 433 removes the bending block 431 from the moving path of the second component 400, so that the bending block 431 is no longer on the path of the second component 400. This slidable configuration of the bending block 431 allows it to switch between the bending position and the avoidance position as needed.

[0046] By configuring the sliding actuator 433, the bending block 431 is not always stationary on the movement path of the second component 400. Instead, it can enter the path when bending is required and exit the path when avoidance is needed. For example, when installing a second component 400 that does not require bending, the bending block 431 can be moved away from the movement path using the sliding actuator 433, keeping the transfer channel of the second component 400 unobstructed. When the bending operation needs to be resumed, the bending block 431 can be returned to the movement path using the sliding actuator 433. For second components 400 of different specifications, if the position of their pins 410 or whether bending is required differs, the sliding actuator 433 can also adjust whether the bending block 431 enters the movement path, allowing the same device to adapt to various working conditions and improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0047] Optionally, the sliding actuator 433 can be in the form of a cylinder, electric push rod, electromagnet, or motor with transmission mechanism, as long as it can drive the bending block 431 to slide in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the second component 400.

[0048] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first assembly mechanism 30 includes a feeder 31 for providing the first component 300 and a transfer assembly 32. The transfer assembly 32 includes a first linear motion assembly 321, a rotating structure 322 connected to the first linear motion assembly 321, and a first clamping member 323 connected to the rotating structure 322. The first clamping member 323 is used to clamp or release the first component 300. The rotating structure 322 is used to drive the first clamping member 323 to rotate around a rotation axis that extends vertically. The first linear motion assembly 321 is used to drive the rotating structure 322, the first clamping member 323, and the first component 300 to move synchronously in a straight line in three-dimensional space.

[0049] The feeder 31 provides the first component 300. When the first component 300 is a capacitor, it can be in the form of a vibratory feeder, tray, tube, or tape feeder, capable of supplying capacitors one by one to the picking position. The transfer assembly 32 picks up the capacitor from the feeder 31 and transfers it to the target workpiece 200 on the conveying mechanism 20. The transfer assembly 32 includes a first linear motion assembly 321, a rotating structure 322, and a first clamping member 323. The first clamping member 323 is used to clamp or release the capacitor, and it can be a pneumatic gripper or electric gripper, capable of picking up and placing the capacitor. The rotating structure 322 is connected to the first linear motion assembly 321, and the first clamping member 323 is connected to the rotating structure 322.

[0050] Specifically, the first linear motion component 321 may include structures such as linear modules 531, slide cylinders, or linear motors arranged in three mutually perpendicular directions, which can drive the rotating structure 322 and the first clamping member 323 to achieve linear displacement in space along the X, Y, and Z axes. When a capacitor needs to be picked up, the first linear motion component 321 drives the first clamping member 323 to move to the picking position of the feeder 31. After the first clamping member 323 picks up the capacitor, the first linear motion component 321 then moves the capacitor to the mounting position above the target workpiece 200 on the conveying mechanism 20. During the transfer process or after reaching the target workpiece 200, the rotating structure 322 can drive the first clamping member 323 to rotate around the vertical rotation axis, thereby causing the capacitor to rotate around the vertical axis to adjust the capacitor's posture.

[0051] Since capacitors typically have polarity or a specific arrangement, their orientation when supplied in the feeder 31 may not match the orientation required by the mounting position of the target workpiece 200. Therefore, before installing the capacitor onto the target workpiece 200, it is necessary to rotate the capacitor around its vertical axis by a certain angle so that the capacitor's pins 410 correspond to the slots on the target workpiece 200, or so that the capacitor's polarity markings face a predetermined direction. The rotating structure 322 drives the first clamping member 323 to rotate, thereby achieving the adjustment of the capacitor's angle in the horizontal plane without the need for additional adjustment stations or manual intervention.

[0052] The cooperation between the first linear movement component 321 and the rotating structure 322 enables the first clamping member 323 to move along a straight line to any desired position in three-dimensional space, and also to adjust the angle of the capacitor around the vertical axis. This allows for simultaneous position transfer and attitude adjustment during a single pick-and-place operation. Consequently, the first assembly mechanism 30's capacitor pick-and-place actions are more flexible, adapting to the difference between the capacitor's feeding posture in the feeder 31 and the installation posture required by the target workpiece 200. This reduces installation failures due to posture mismatches, improving the accuracy of capacitor installation and assembly efficiency.

[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the material transfer structure includes a second linear motion component 421 and a second clamping member 422 connected to the linear motion component 53. The second clamping member 422 is used to clamp or release the second component 400, and the second linear motion component 421 is used to drive the second clamping member 422 and the second component 400 to move synchronously in a straight line in three-dimensional space.

[0054] The second clamping member 422 is used to clamp or release the second component 400. It can be a pneumatic gripper or an electric gripper, or other structure capable of picking up and placing the second component 400. The second linear motion assembly 421 is used to drive the second clamping member 422 and the clamped second component 400 to move synchronously in a straight line in three-dimensional space. Specifically, the second linear motion assembly 421 can include a linear module 531, a slide cylinder, or a linear motor, etc., arranged in three mutually perpendicular directions, which can drive the second clamping member 422 to achieve linear displacement in space along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions. When it is necessary to pick up the second component 400, the second linear motion assembly 421 drives the second clamping member 422 to move to the picking position of the feeding structure 41. After the second clamping member 422 clamps the second component 400, the second linear motion assembly 421 then sends the second component 400 to the conveying mechanism 20.

[0055] Since the second linear motion component 421 can drive the second clamping member 422 to move linearly in three-dimensional space, the picking and unloading positions of the second clamping member 422 can be flexibly set in space. For example, when there is a height difference between the picking position of the feeding structure 41 and the mounting position on the conveying mechanism 20, the second linear motion component 421 can drive the second clamping member 422 to first rise or fall to complete the picking, then move horizontally to above the conveying mechanism 20, and finally fall to install the second component 400 in place. The movement path of the second component 400 can thus be adjusted according to the actual arrangement of the feeding structure 41, the bending block 431, and the conveying mechanism 20, without being limited to linear movement in a single direction.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the frame 10 also includes a loading station 11. The loading station 11, the first assembly station 12, and the second assembly station 13 are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 20. The loading station 11 is equipped with a loading mechanism 50. The loading mechanism 50 includes a feeding component 51, an adhesive application structure 52, and a moving component 53. The feeding component 51 is used to provide the target workpiece 200. The target workpiece 200 has an installation area for installing the first component 300 and the second component 400. The adhesive application structure 52 is used to apply adhesive to the surface of the installation area. The moving component 53 is used to drive the target workpiece 200 to move between the conveying mechanism 20, the feeding component 51, and the adhesive application structure 52. That is, the travel path of the target workpiece 200 on the conveying mechanism 20 passes through the loading station 11, the first assembly station 12, and the second assembly station 13 in sequence.

[0057] The feeding assembly 51 can adopt a common feeding method in the art, such as a vibratory feeder combined with a cutting die or other conventional structure. The vibratory feeder can organize and orient the target workpiece 200, arranging it in a predetermined posture for output; the cutting die can be used to separate the incoming material, so that the target workpiece 200 is supplied one by one to the picking position. Since this type of feeding assembly 51 is a conventional technical means in the art, its specific structure and connection method will not be described in detail here.

[0058] The target workpiece 200 has a mounting area for mounting the first component 300 and the second component 400, which is the slot on the choke plate for assembling capacitors and resistors. An adhesive application structure 52 is used to apply adhesive to the surface of the mounting area. The adhesive application structure 52 can be in the form of a dispensing valve, an adhesive roller, a scraper, or a sprayer, etc., and can apply a layer of adhesive to the mounting area of ​​the target workpiece 200.

[0059] An adhesive application structure 52 is installed at the loading station 11 so that the mounting area of ​​the target workpiece 200 is coated with adhesive before entering the assembly station. After the first component 300 and the second component 400 are installed in the mounting area, they can be initially fixed to the target workpiece 200 with the help of adhesive. Therefore, when the conveying mechanism 20 continues to transport the target workpiece 200 or when assembly is performed in subsequent stations, the installed first component 300 and second component 400 are less likely to shift or fall off due to vibration or collision, which helps to maintain their installation position and facilitates subsequent processes.

[0060] In some embodiments, the conveying mechanism 20 is used to convey the target workpiece 200 along a first direction. The feeding assembly 51, the gluing structure 52, and the conveying mechanism 20 are arranged sequentially at intervals along a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction. That is, the moving assembly 53 moves back and forth in the second direction, passing sequentially through the feeding assembly 51, the gluing structure 52, and the conveying mechanism 20, thereby taking the target workpiece 200 out from the feeding assembly 51, completing the gluing process through the gluing structure 52, and then sending it to the conveying mechanism 20.

[0061] The moving component 53 includes a linear module 531 extending along a second direction, a third clamping member 532 connected to the linear module 531, and a detection structure 533 connected to the linear module 531. The linear module 531 drives the third clamping member 532 and the detection structure 533 to move synchronously along the second direction. The third clamping member 532 is used to clamp or release the target workpiece 200, and the detection structure 533 is used to detect the posture of the target workpiece 200 provided by the feeding component 51 and the adhesive application status of the target workpiece 200. The third clamping member 532, used to clamp or release the target workpiece 200, can be a pneumatic gripper or an electric gripper, etc. The detection structure 533 can be a vision camera, a photoelectric sensor, or an image recognition device, etc., which can capture or sense the target workpiece 200 to obtain posture information and adhesive application status information of the target workpiece 200.

[0062] The detection structure 533 detects the posture of the target workpiece 200, specifically checking whether the position of the target workpiece 200 is correct when the feeding assembly 51 discharges the material. When the feeding assembly 51 supplies the target workpieces 200 one by one to the picking position, the target workpieces 200 may experience positional shifts, skewed postures, or incorrect orientations due to differences in incoming materials, directional deviations of the vibratory feeder, or uneven force during the separation of the cutting die. The detection structure 533 also detects the adhesive application on the target workpiece 200, such as checking whether the adhesive is applied adequately, whether the amount applied is appropriate, or whether there are any missed areas.

[0063] In some embodiments, the assembly equipment further includes a waste recycling structure 60 for recycling target workpieces 200 that have failed the adhesive coating test. The waste recycling structure 60 is located on the side of the conveying mechanism 20 opposite to the feeding assembly 51 and is spaced apart from the conveying mechanism 20 along a second direction. When the adhesive coating of the target workpiece 200 is detected to be unqualified, the third clamping member 532 clamps the unqualified target workpiece 200 and moves it to the waste recycling structure 60, releasing the unqualified target workpiece 200 into the waste recycling structure 60.

[0064] In this embodiment, the linear module 531 simultaneously drives the third clamping member 532 and the detection structure 533 to move, so that the detection structure 533 and the third clamping member 532 share the same driving source. The detection structure 533 can reach the feeding component 51 and the gluing structure 52 together with the third clamping member 532. The posture of the target workpiece 200 is detected before material is picked up, and the gluing condition is detected after gluing. There is no need to set up a separate moving mechanism for the detection structure 533, and only one set of detection structure 533 is needed, which reduces the number of mechanisms and the space occupied by the equipment.

[0065] Optionally, a rotary driver can be provided between the linear module 531 and the third clamping member 532. The rotary driver is used to drive the third clamping member 532 to rotate around the vertical axis, thereby causing the target workpiece 200 held by the third clamping member 532 to rotate together. When the detection structure 533 detects that the position or posture of the target workpiece 200 does not meet the requirements when the feeding assembly 51 discharges material, the third clamping member 532 can be driven by the rotary driver to rotate around the vertical axis by a certain angle after clamping the target workpiece 200, so as to adjust the orientation of the target workpiece 200 and make the posture of the target workpiece 200 consistent with the requirements of subsequent glue application and material loading.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the gluing structure 52 includes a gluing machine 521, a linear motion device 522 extending along a first direction, and a fixture seat 523 slidably connected to the linear motion device 522. The fixture seat 523 is used to carry the target workpiece 200, and the linear motion device 522 is used to drive the fixture seat 523 to move along the first direction. One end of the linear motion device 522 extends between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20, and the other end of the linear motion device 522 is connected to the gluing machine 521. The fixture seat 523 moves between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20 and carries the target workpiece 200 to be glued, and transfers the target workpiece 200 to the gluing machine 521, where the gluing machine 521 applies glue to the target workpiece 200. The fixture seat 523 transfers the glued target workpiece 200 between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20 for the third clamping member 532 to pick up.

[0067] The glue applicator 521 can employ glue applicator equipment commonly used in the art, such as a three-axis module and a glue applicator head connected to the three-axis module. The three-axis module can drive the glue applicator head to move in space, and the glue applicator head is used to output glue to the mounting area of ​​the target workpiece 200, thereby forming a glue layer on the surface of the mounting area.

[0068] Specifically, after the third clamping member 532 of the moving component 53 clamps the target workpiece 200 from the feeding component 51, the linear module 531 drives the third clamping member 532 to move along the second direction to a position between the feeding component 51 and the conveying mechanism 20. At this time, the linear mover 522 drives the fixture seat 523 to move along the first direction to a position between the feeding component 51 and the conveying mechanism 20, and the third clamping member 532 places the target workpiece 200 on the fixture seat 523, which then carries the target workpiece 200 to be coated with adhesive. Subsequently, the linear mover 522 drives the fixture seat 523 to move along the first direction toward the adhesive applicator 521, transferring the target workpiece 200 to the adhesive applicator 521. The three-axis module of the adhesive applicator 521 drives the adhesive applicator head to move above the mounting area of ​​the target workpiece 200, and the adhesive applicator head applies adhesive to the surface of the mounting area. After the adhesive is applied, the linear mover 522 drives the fixture seat 523 to move in the opposite direction, transferring the glued target workpiece 200 back to the position between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20. At this time, the third clamping member 532 picks up the glued target workpiece 200 from the fixture seat 523 again, and the linear module 531 continues to send it to the conveying mechanism 20.

[0069] With this setup, the fixture 523 transfers the material to the glue applicator 521 for glue application, and then transfers it back to the pick-up / placement position. This allows the glue applicator 521 to be positioned away from the pick-up / placement position, preventing spatial interference between the glue applicator 521's applicator head, three-axis module, and other components and the linear module 531 and third clamping member 532 of the moving assembly 53. The linear mover 522 extends along a first direction, which is perpendicular to the second direction in which the feeding assembly 51, glue applicator 52, and conveying mechanism 20 are arranged. This ensures that the reciprocating movement direction of the fixture 523 between the pick-up / placement position and the glue applicator 521 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the linear module 531 of the moving assembly 53. Both can operate independently without interfering with each other, which helps improve the coordination of the various actions of the feeding mechanism 50 and the overall operating efficiency.

[0070] In addition, after the fixture 523 transfers the glued target workpiece 200 back to the position between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20, the detection structure 533 detects the glue application status of the target workpiece 200. The detection results can be divided into two categories.

[0071] Firstly, if the detection structure 533 detects a deficiency in adhesive application, such as missed areas or insufficient application, the fixture 523 does not hand over the target workpiece 200 to the third clamping member 532 for transport to the conveying mechanism 20. Instead, it transports the target workpiece 200 back to the adhesive applicator 521 along the linear actuator 522, where the adhesive applicator 521 reapplies adhesive to the target workpiece 200. After adhesive application, the fixture 523 transfers the target workpiece 200 back to the position between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20, and the detection structure 533 checks the adhesive application again. This process is repeated until the detection structure 533 detects that the adhesive application is qualified. Only then does the third clamping member 532 pick up the target workpiece 200 from the fixture 523 and send it to the conveying mechanism 20.

[0072] Secondly, if the detection structure 533 detects excessive coating or coating area exceeding the coating zone, the target workpiece 200 will not be returned to the coating machine 521. Instead, the third clamping member 532 will send it to the waste recycling structure 60. In other words, the waste recycling structure 60 will recycle the target workpiece 200 that has been over-coated and cannot be corrected.

[0073] In this way, the poor glue application detected by the detection structure 533 is divided into two categories: those that can be reworked and those that cannot. Target workpieces 200 with insufficient or missing glue application can be corrected by reapplying glue and can continue to be used after passing the correction, without being scrapped. However, target workpieces 200 with excessive glue application are difficult to correct by reapplying glue and are therefore sent to the waste recycling structure 60. Compared with the prior art, which sends both insufficient and excessive glue application to the waste recycling structure 60, this embodiment retains the target workpieces 200 with insufficient glue application in the glue application process for rework correction. This allows the waste recycling structure 60 to only recycle the target workpieces 200 with excessive glue application, thereby reducing the number of target workpieces directly scrapped due to insufficient glue application, improving the utilization rate of target workpieces 200, and reducing material loss. At the same time, the glue application effect of the target workpieces 200 has been detected and controlled before being sent to the conveying mechanism 20. Only target workpieces 200 with qualified glue application enter the subsequent assembly process, which helps to ensure the installation and fixing effect of the first component 300 and the second component 400. In addition, in this embodiment, the inspection and rework gluing are connected in the same feeding process, and the same fixture seat 523 moves back and forth between the pick-up and put-down position and the gluing machine 521 to complete the process. There is no need to set up a separate rework channel or manual intervention. The control of gluing quality and the handling of defective products are completed in a closed loop at the feeding station 11, which improves the continuity of the overall production.

[0074] The linear mover 522 can adopt a linear drive structure commonly used in the art, such as a cylinder, rodless cylinder, lead screw motor module, synchronous belt module, or linear motor module, as long as it can drive the fixture seat 523 to reciprocate linearly along the first direction. Two linear movers 522 can be arranged, forming two glue application channels. Both linear movers 522 extend along the first direction, with one end extending between the feeding assembly 51 and the conveying mechanism 20, and the other end docking with the glue applicator 521. Accordingly, each of the two linear movers 522 is provided with a fixture seat 523, which can respectively carry the target workpiece 200 and move back and forth between the pick-up and put-down position and the glue applicator 521. In this way, when one of the fixture seats 523 carries the target workpiece 200 to the glue applicator 521 for glue application, the other fixture seat 523 can hold the target workpiece 200 to be glued at the pick-up and place position, or send the target workpiece 200 back to the pick-up and place position for the third clamping member 532 to pick up after the glue application is completed. This reduces the waiting time of the transfer link between the pick-up and place position and the glue applicator 521, which is conducive to improving the overall cycle time of the feeding mechanism 50.

[0075] In some embodiments, two conveying mechanisms 20 may be arranged, both extending along a first direction and spaced apart along a second direction. The feeding mechanism 50 can alternately feed materials to the two conveying mechanisms 20, thereby further improving the assembly efficiency of the whole machine.

[0076] In summary, the assembly equipment provided in this application uses a conveying mechanism 20 to sequentially transport the target workpiece 200 to the first assembly station 12 and the second assembly station 13 along the conveying direction. The first assembly mechanism 30 automatically completes the installation of the first component 300 onto the target workpiece 200, and the second assembly mechanism 40 automatically completes the feeding, transfer, and installation of the second component 400 onto the target workpiece 200. This achieves continuous and automated assembly of the first component 300 and the second component 400 with the target workpiece 200 on the same equipment. Compared to manual or semi-automatic operation methods, this effectively reduces manual intervention and improves efficiency. Assembly efficiency; and this application integrates the feeding structure 41, the transferring structure and the bending structure 43. The bending structure 43 is located between the feeding structure 41 and the conveying mechanism 20. When the transferring structure picks up the second component 400 from the feeding structure 41 and moves it to the conveying mechanism 20, the bending structure 43 can be used to bend the pin 410 of the second component 400, so that the bending action of the pin 410 is completed synchronously with the transfer action of the second component 400. Therefore, there is no need to set up a separate bending station or additional bending equipment, nor is there a need to transfer between bending and assembly, which simplifies the equipment structure of the assembly equipment.

[0077] The above are merely optional embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of the claims of this application.
